Since my request started this offtopic subthread I hope I can put it to rest. Yes I requested to not toppost. I asked politely, and I added pertinent response on topic. I do not claim to be right or wrong about this. I prefer interleaved style for reason. Everyone on this list heard all arguments pro and con in previous discussions, and there is no need to repeat them. It is a matter of personal choice though I have to admit I feel a bit emboldened by the posting guidelines. And in my experience a polite question goes a long way with most civilized people. You can ignore my request, well you even ask me to toppost. I will ignore it. There is no need for a lecture, you have no claim to right or wrong either. Claiming a de facto industry standard (I avoided the literally sidebar here) on majority is a questionable argument. Large numbers do not make right. There are many examples where the majority is wrong. Well I go along with majority practice knowing they are wrong, just to make life easier. I try not to yell at people though for choosing differently. And it is questionable to get you anywhere anytime fast. And I do not like that Gene was called an "epitome of humanity" in a cynical way and I earned a hypocrite long after I copped out of that discussion.
Please let this rest. -H -- Henning Follmann | hfollm...@itcfollmann.com
